Not that I have already obtained it, or have been already made perfect; but I follow on that I may attain that for which also I was arrested by Christ.

Let us, as many as are perfect therefore, be of this mind; and if any one thinks at all otherwise, God shall also reveal this to you;

that you may walk worthily of the Lord in all that is pleasing [to him], being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; being strengthened with all power, according to his glorious power, for all patience and long suffering with joy;

and the Lord cause you to be full and abound with love one to another and to all men, as we also to you, to confirm your hearts without blame in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.

Wherefore leaving the account of the beginning of Christ, let us go on to perfection, not laying again the foundation of a change of mind from dead works, and of faith in God, of baptisms taught, and the imposition of hands, and of the resurrection of the dead, and of the eternal judgment. And this we will do if God permits.

that you may prove the excellent, that you may be without fault and without offense in the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness, through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

so that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the Praetorium and in all other places, and many of the brothers having been made confident by my bonds in the Lord have more abundant courage to speak the word without fear.

But I also will rejoice; for I know that this will result in salvation to me, through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, according to my expectation and hope that I shall be ashamed in nothing, but with all boldness as always also now Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death. Because for me to live is Christ and to die is gain. But if to live in the flesh [is allowed me], I have this fruit of my work, and which I shall choose I know not.
